What We Do

Gerald Walsh Associates Inc. was founded in 1990. Our office is in The Mitchell House, a fabulous 200-year old heritage building in downtown Halifax, adjacent the historic Halifax waterfront.

Since 1990, we have helped employers to hire, manage and develop their employees. We do this by offering them a range of human resource services including executive search, compensation planning, salary reviews, career transition, executive coaching, and performance management.

In particular, we love working for purpose-driven organizations like municipalities and NGOs, not-for-profit organizations, membership and industry associations, and owner-managed businesses, because we feel their values align closely with our own values.

A few years ago – seeing a need in the marketplace – we launched a career coaching service. Here we work with individuals one-on-one or in group workshops to help them find the right job that matches their skills, interests, values, and aspirations.

Over these 27 years we’ve met many wonderful people and have built an excellent reputation for our work. As a result we’ve been fortunate to earn the repeat and referred business of hundreds of clients.

Respect For Others

Treating people respectfully is fundamental to how we do business. It doesn’t matter if you’re a big corporation or a small not-for-profit. A high-flying executive or someone who has just lost their job. You will be treated with the same level of respect and dignity when you speak with us.

We're Just Getting Started

2017 marks our 27th year in business, yet it feels like we’re just getting started. We are particularly excited about our decision to embark on our B Corporation certification in 2017. We know that it is possible to make money and make a difference at the same time. Once we become certified, we will join almost 2,000 companies worldwide who are using business as a force for good in our communities and in the world.

Beyond that, we will continue to strive at being the most-respected firm in our field – known for our thought leadership, personal service, community involvement, and happy, dedicated employees. Mostly, we want everyone who comes into contact with us – whether employer or individual – to have an extraordinary, welcoming experience. That’s our promise to you.
